Very nice find. I agree dverna, John Taylor does excellent work.

i have one and it is very hand for my 32-20. Got it for free as my brother gave it to me years ago.

You made a good choice in John Taylor. He relined a 32-40 for me. His work is excellent.

Chill, thank you i will try there.

Does anyone know how to contact Tom Rowe. I would like to add my Hupburn to the list of surviving rifles

Just a guess but that could be a 33-40 round. It was popular in target rifles. A favorite of Harry Pope in his schuetzen rifles.

I have a Hepburn with its original stock. These rifles are classics. The checkering on your rifle is absolutely beautiful. I am not surprised that the gentleman who did this is somewhat older. I say...

I have done some research and the 25-36 Marlin looks closest. Relining the barrel is a good idea if you can do it. This preserves the length of the barrel and would guarantee proper bore diameter. I...

Barrabruce,
Thinks, i would not thought of warming the bullets. I have a nice German rifle in 8.15x46r. it is a target rifle but not a Schuetzen rifle. I think it may have been made for the Running...

Does anyone make a tool for lubing stop ring bullets? At present I am just smearing the lube in.

The 32-40 Remington is actually a 308 bore. the brass can be made from 303 Enfield or 30-40 Kreg. You can see it in Cartilages of the World. My guns original barrel was chambered in this round some...

Yes that forearm is on the later ones. This rifle was originally in 32-40 Remington which is much different from 32-40 Winchester. The original barrel was replaced and I ask my brother to save it but...

Some years ago I acquired a new old stock Remington 03a3 barrel. The barrel is marked R A with 9 43. It is a two grove barrel shiny inside and straight as far as i can tell. The under side has two...

I acquired an 03a3 a number years ago and just put in the back of the safe. Someone varnished the stock and put white paint in the lettering on the receiver. I got it out to restore it back to...

Bent, Thanks for the info. It has some markings on the top but I could make out Wotk but that was all. The gentleman who gave it to me had some very nice benchrest rifles at the time. This was in the...
